Chapter 525 So Don't Kick Me Out
Alina walked to Braden's side and patted him comfortingly on the back with one hand while holding his
fingers. Naturally, they looked like an old married couple who had been married for decades.
"Since you're the one who came to change the dressing, why didn't you tell me in advance before
entering the door? You scared my boyfriend."
Alina looked at Shirley coldly, her tone very arrogant.
Shirley used to have that arrogance, too, born of absolute confidence in her relationship with Braden.
However, she no longer had the confidence to do so. In the face of Braden and Alina's intimacy, she
was like a giant third wheel, out of place.
Shirley, however, was by nature indomitable. The greatest part of her personality was resistance.
Although she was heartbroken, tears kept rolling down her cheeks. With a mutinous expression, she
sneered, "Ms. Gilmore, you're too formal. I believe that with my relationship with Braden, I don't need to
make an appointment with you in advance."
"You!"
Alina was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said indignantly, "You know your place as a nurse. I
don't need you here anymore. You can get out of here."
"I think, whether it is necessary or not, it should be Braden to settle."
Shirley’s icy gaze softened as she said softly, "Braden, I know you're mad at me, so you pretended not
to recognize me. It's only right for you to be angry.
I did a lot of bad things and got the punishment I deserved. I came to you to help you, so don't kick me
out."
Braden didn't answer.
He pursed his lips and frowned. His eyes were filled with confusion.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was indeed confused, not deliberately pretended to be so because he was being angry.
Alina's expression darkened. She let go of Braden's hand and gave Shirley a hard push. "That's
enough. He's just out of danger now. Stop provoking him. Do you want him dead?"
Shirley ignored Alina and kept looking at Braden, waiting for the man's answer. "I'll listen to him. I'll
leave if he wants me to. I'll stay if he wants me to."
Seeing that Shirley could not be moved, Alina had no choice but to turn to Braden. "Braden, this
woman is a scoundrel. Her purpose of approaching you is not innocent at all. Don't give her hope.
Hurry up and get her out of here."
"Not innocent?"
Braden's frown deepened, and he said coldly, "Is she just a nurse, isn't she? I don't think she dares to
have any ulterior motive. Why don't you stay and change my dressing?"
"Braden!"
Alina stomped her foot in frustration. She was unwilling to lose to Shirley again. She shouted, "I don't
like her. She obviously wants to seduce you. I won't allow you to keep her!"
"You silly girl!"
Braden wrapped his arm around Alina's and said dotingly, "You know my feelings to you very well.
There's no need to argue with a nurse. I asked her to stay because I think you need someone to do this
low-level job for you.
Your hands are so delicate and soft. You can't be stimulated by the ointment."
At this point, he lowered his head and kissed the back of Alina's hand carefully, as if he was kissing his
treasure.
Shirley was speechless.
Her heart was throbbing in pain again, as if it had been cut.
Originally, he had made her happy secretly, but now it seemed that letting her stay was tantamount to a
torture.
After being comforted, Alina was on cloud nine. She felt a sense of satisfaction that she had never felt
before when she noticed Shirley's sorrowful look.
"Well, just let her stay. Anyway, she's just a nurse, and she doesn't deserve to compete with me for
you."
She pointed at the ointment on the bedside table and ordered Shirley arrogantly, "What are you waiting
for? Braden's wound is very deep, and it needs to be changed within three hours. Hurry up."
"Okay!"
Shirley nodded and obediently went to get the ointment.
She could not tell if Braden had truly forgotten about her or just pretended not to remember her.
However, it didn't matter. Her purpose was to make him better and give him a happy life.
"Mr. Stewart, please lie down and I'll apply medicine for you."
Shirley calmly squeezed the thick ointment into her palm and asked Braden, who was flirting with Alina.
It was not the first time she had taken care of the man, so she was familiar with many procedures and
was particularly skillful in operating them.
First, she unbuttoned his shirt, then removed the gauze wrapped around his body, and then she
warmed up her palm with the ointment and gently applied it to his wound.
"Thank you."
Braden did not shirk or embarrass himself. Instead, he lay flat on his back. His slender and perfect
body appeared generously as if it was in a museum.
When Alina saw that Shirley was about to unbutton Braden's shirt, she immediately stepped forward
and stopped her. "I'll unbutton his shirt for him. It's inappropriate for you, an outsider, to be so intimate
with him."
Shirley raised her eyebrows and said, 'Whatever you say."
Hence, Alina unbuttoned Braden's shirt.
Shirley’s heart tightened at the sight of the wounds on the man's chest.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNo wonder he hated her so much. These injuries were all caused by her, so it was not too much for him
to skin her alive!
"You, you hold it in. This medicine is rather irritating and may hurt a little."
Shirley's voice choked, and tears blurred her vision.
She lowered her head, rubbed the ointment on her index finger, and applied it to his cracked wound bit
by bit.
"Mmm!"
Braden frowned in pain and groaned.
"What are you doing? You're so clumsy. It hurts my boyfriend!"
Alina pushed Shirley and lectured her condescendingly, "Don't try it if you don't know how to apply it.
Don't try to seduce my boyfriend. Everyone knows that it should be applied with cotton swabs, but you
apply it with your fingers. You know very well what you're thinking!"
Shirley bit her lip, suppressed her anger, and glared at Alina coldly. "I know exactly what I'm doing. The
cotton swab is too hard, and his wound is cracked like this. Only applying it with fingers will minimize
the pain."
"N-Nonsense, the nurses all use cotton swabs, I think you just want to seduce!"
"Heh, don’t make me laugh. Do I need to seduce him in this way as my position in his heart?"
Shirley said sharply, "As for you, you have been so worried that your boyfriend will be seduced. Is it
because you feel guilty for getting him in some despicable way?"
"That's not true. Shut up!"
Alina roared in annoyance. Every word of Shirley poked at her sore spot.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Shirley suddenly realized that Braden's condition was very
strange. There was cold sweat on his forehead and his limbs kept twitching.
"Stop arguing and see how he’s doing first!"
Shirley shouted at Alina.
